Australian GP provides fan with a great spectacle...a lot of overtaking and actions everywhere around the track. The spectacle is so great that people are forgiven to forget about how awful Bahrain GP was. The main reason why Australian GP is so great to watch is because of the rain that comes down before the start of the race.

The highlight of the race are:-
1. Lucas Di Grassi races and overtake Michael Schumacher. Eventhough Michael are able to get pass Di Grassi right after that, It shows that Virgin Racing Cars are not there just to make up numbers. Really bold move by Di Grassi.
2. First turn tussle.
Fernando Alonso get banged up by Jenson Button and Michael Schumacher at the first turn.
3. Heavy crash between Kamui Kobayashi, Jaime Alguersuari and Nico Hulkenberg at lap six.
Kamui Kobayashi's Sauber car lost grips and hit the wall before hitting Nico Hulkenberg's car at turn six forcing the safety car to come out.
4. Great strategy and bad call
Jenson Button's bold move to change to slick where the track is still wet got him the first win under Mclaren's name. Eventhough he did involved in some drama at turn 4 right after the tyre change, he eventually caught other drivers napping. Martin Whitmarsh revealed that the tyre change is Button's own call and not his team's. Bold move by a rather conservative driver. But at the same time, Hamilton's race is wrecked by his team's call for a second pit stop right after he's tailgating Rubert Kubica. The furious Hamilton revealed that he will find out who makes that call.
5. Webber hits Hamilton
Both driver have the advantage of fresher tyre than Fernando Alonso's Ferrari that had a single pit stop. But Hamilton's inability to move past Alonso quickly is costing him the podium finish. Hot air that caused by the turbulence from the back of Alonso's car wrecked his tyre faster than he expected. Then the inevitable happen when the over-eager Webber finally hits his car at turn 4 and he finish at lowly 6th place.
